"Lawless armed militia now rule much of Libya and are forcing whole communities to flee as they impose a regime of torture and violence, Amnesty International said on 16 February 2012.

"The charity quoted detainees claiming they 'had been suspended in contorted positions, beaten for hours with whips, cables, plastic hoses, metal chains and bars, and wooden sticks and given electric shocks with live wires and Taser-like electroshock weapons'.

"Amnesty claimed at least 12 detainees had died since September from torture injuries. The report said: 'Their bodies were covered in bruises, wounds and cuts and some had had nails pulled off.'...

Small crowd celebrates new government

"Amnesty said it visited 11 detention camps in central and western Libya this month and last, and found evidence of torture and abuse at all but one.

"'There's torture, extrajudicial executions, rape of both men and women,' said UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay."

Did the USA fall out with Assad over heroin?Syria's Basil Assad died in a car crash in 1994. Reportedly Basil was killed because of his role in suppressing the Syrian-Lebanese drug trade in the Bekaa Valley. (Website)

'CIA asset' Monzer al Kassar at home

1. In the 1980's, Syria reportedly had links to 'the CIA's trade in arms and heroin'.

Syria's Monzer Al Kassar, a friend of the Assad family, reportedly worked with the USA's Colonel Oliver North.

Reportedly, Al Kassar sold heroin to the USA and some of the profits were used by North to buy arms for the fascist Nicaraguan Contras.

The US Tower Commission probe into Irangate revealed that Al Kassar had been paid $1.2 million by Oliver North's coconspirator General Richard Secord to move weapons from Israel to the Contras.

In her book "October Surprise," former Reagan White House aide Barbara Honegger alleged that Al Kassar's heroin smuggling network in Italy was used to send NATO arms to Iran with the help of Italian intelligence officials linked to the Masonic lodge, P2.

Al Kassar was reported to hold large tracts of land in Lebanon's Bekaa Valley.

2. In 1988, the CIA allegedly brought down PanAm 103 over Lockerbie.

The CIA reportedly wanted to destroy Major Charles McKee and his team who had gathered evidence of CIA drug smuggling and who were flying to the USA to act as whistleblowers.

Lester Coleman, a Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) officer worked with the secret unit, Middle East Collection 10 (MC10) in Cyprus.

Two senior MC10 members, Mathew Kevin Gannon and Major Charles Dennis McKee, were on PanAm flight 103 when it exploded; they had just returned from a mission in Beirut.

Coleman explained that the Drugs Enforcement Administration (DEA), with the narcotics squad of the Cypriot national police, the German BKA police and British customs, ran an operation through Cyprus and airports in Europe, including Frankfurt.

The operation involved delivering heroin from the Bekaa Valley in Lebanon to the United States; the operation was codenamed "Khourah." Coleman maintained that Pan Am Flight 103 was being used by the DEA.

Pan Am hired the private investigative firm of Interfor to look into the bombing.

Interfor maintained that PanAm 103 was part of a heroin smuggling route run by a drug trafficking ring protected by the CIA.

Interfor claimed the ring was overseen by Monzer Al Kassar.

The CIA and DEA had apparently both instructed Germany's internal intelligence agency, the BKA, to allow certain suitcases to pass uninspected onto US bound flights at the Frankfort airport, where Flight 103 originated.

A suitcase which was supposed to be full of the usual heroin was covertly substituted with a suitcase full of explosives.

4. Reportedly, the CIA interfered with the evidence in the Lockerbie case.

"The Libyan convicted of the Lockerbie bombing claims he will produce evidence that will prove he was framed for Britain's worst terrorist atrocity.

"In a forthcoming book ... Megrahi alleges that British and American authorities knew that a crucial piece of evidence linking Libya to the downing of Pan Am 103 was planted.

"Documents obtained by his defence team are said to reveal that a fragment of electronic timer - said to be part of the bomb - was subjected to forensic testing before Megrahi's trial in 2000.

"The Libyan claims that the tests failed to detect explosive residues on the fragment but that this information was not revealed at his trial.

"Sources close to Megrahi believe evidence of such tests would severely undermine the safety of his conviction.

"At the Libyan's trial ... forensic scientists testified that the fragment was part of a circuit board used as a trigger for the bomb. They stated it had not been tested for explosive residues...

"This evidence ... helped to convict Megrahi...

"The Sunday Times has also seen unpublished British intelligence documents from 1989 revealing that the Scottish police were convinced that a barometric bomb - triggered by altitude, not an electronic timer - downed Pan Am 103.

"Megrahi has been working with a British journalist on a book, the publication of which is imminent.

"Sources close to the project said that in Megrahi: You Are My Jury, the Libyan reveals that forensic tests were conducted on the timer fragment.

"It suggests the fragment was not part of the Lockerbie bomb and adds weight to claims that it was 'introduced' later to bolster the case against Megrahi...

"The timer fragment became a key plank in the case against Megrahi...

"It was claimed that months after the December 21 bombing ... in 1988, a tiny piece of circuit board was found in a piece of clothing about 25 miles away from Lockerbie. The prosecution ... linked this fragment of circuit board, described as part of the bomb trigger, to Megrahi.

There may have been a fall out over heroin, but the recent Syrian Crisis is (in my opinion) based on a different set of criteria.

It is based on the Globalist strategy of creating an 'arc of tension', and, further, instability and weakness among North African and Middle Eastern countries.

The prize and objective is bigger than heroin smuggling.

It's partly to make the Mediterranean Sea a Globalist lake.

Syria is the last significant Mediterranean shoreline that is independent from the Western oriented Globalists. Algeria is semi-independent from the West, and, guess what, an "Arab Spring" gambit was abortively tried there, too, but it never got off the ground. Algeria's shoreline is much less strategic than Syria's.

But Zionist and Israeli objectives are definitely part of the motivation, too.

Zionists want to "exterminate" the Assad government (I have that on high authority -- personal knowledge -- "Exterminate" is a direct quote from a reliable source).

The word choice is surprising for its vivid & blunt viciousness, but not the general objective -- that is well known.

But more ominous is the strategy:

The Western press has been blaming the Assad government for mass slaughter, when in reality, the rebels/insurgents are the ones slaughtering innocents.

The Zionists think the 'Western Press Cover' is enough to fool the American People and other Western publics. My suspicion based on this source, is that Zionists will claim that Assad is bent on and engaged in committing Christian Genocide (some 10% of the Syrian population is Christian out of 22 million people overall).

Of course, it would be really the opposite, the rebels slaughtering Christians, with the rebels armed and trained by the West, Gulf Cooperation Council, and, apparently, Israel.

But with an impending Christian Genocide allegedly to be perpetrated by the Assad regime, that would tip the political balance in America for full-fledged military intervention to "stop the Christian Genocide" and allow the "extermination" of the Assad government.

Of course, this is all patently absurd, as the Christian minority stands either with their fellow minority Muslim Alawite sect Assad government or is against armed insurrection because they know what would happen if there was a full on drive to exterminate the Assad government by the Muslim Brotherhood and other radicalized Muslim factions.

Still, the Zionists are very confident of their ability to direct & control the American corporate press (with good reason as they own or control almost all of it), and are arrogant enough to think they can pull it off.

A "Christian Genocide" might also give the Zionists the cover they need to go into Syria to physically control at least parts of the country or all of it, if the violence got too bad (cynically with Israeli assistence).

Israel needs to commit genocide if they are to fulfill their objective of creating a Greater Israel from the banks of the Nile to the banks of the Euphrates.

A 'Class of Civilizations' might be the avenue Israel needs to exterminate any Arabs standing in the way of Greater Israel.

But first they need to get rid of the Christians in Syria.

What better way than to blame it on the Assad Government -- no matter that any objective observer would know that is false.

Conclusion: Zionists (of the Greater Israel mind-set) are sociopathically out of control (some would call it being insane).

Chinese-Indonesian businessman James Riady on the right reportedly has links to the CIA, Chinese intelligence, Bill Clinton and others.

In 2010, Lord James of Blackheath (David James.) said that: "The total value of the Vatican bank reserves (of gold) would claim to be more than (what we have been told is) the entire value of gold ever mined in the history of the world."

In other words, there may be a lot more gold, hidden for example in Rothschild and Vatican vaults, than we thought. If that is made public, the price of gold will come down fast. (GOLD PRICE TO FALL?)

On 19 February 2012, Lord James of Blackheath's produced revelations concerning reports of 15 trillion dollars (reportedly backed by 750,000 tonnes of gold), originating with a Mr Riyadi, transferred to various banks.

"First, there may have been a massive piece of money-laundering committed by a major Government who should know better. Effectively, it undermined the integrity of a British bank, the Royal Bank of Scotland, in doing so.

"The second possibility is that a major American department has an agency which has gone rogue on it because it has been wound up and has created a structure out of which it is seeking to get at least €50 billion as a pay-off.

"The third possibility is that this is an extraordinarily elaborate fraud, which has not been carried out, but which has been prepared to provide a threat to one Government or more if they do not make a pay-off...

"In April and May 2009, the situation started ... A total of $15 trillion is alleged to have been passed into the hands of HSBC for onward transit to the Royal Bank of Scotland.

"It starts off apparently as the property of Yohannes Riyadi, who has some claims to be considered the richest man in the world.

The Chinese-Indonesian Riady family has large business interests in Asia. In 2001, Riady paid $8.6 million in fines in the United States for making illegal campaign contributions to former president Bill Clinton in the 1990s. Clinton's Indonesian ties may face scrutiny Politics Reuters. According to a 1998 CIA report, "James and Moctar Riady have had a long-term relationship with a Chinese intelligence agency." James Riady "has ties with the American far-right evalgelical movement, particularly with the George Bush confidant, Pat Robertson." - JakartassClinton; Indonesia; Chinese Intelligence Agency)

"I have seen some accounts of his showing that he owns $36 trillion in a bank...

"A lot of that money has been taken away from him, with his consent, by the American Treasury over the years for the specific purpose of helping to support the dollar.

"Mr Riyadi has sent me a remarkable document dated February 2006 in which the American Government have called him to a meeting with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York...

"This astonishing document purports to have been a meeting, which was witnessed by Mr Alan Greenspan... by Mr Timothy Geithner...

"These gentlemen have signed as witnesses to the effect that this deal is a proper deal...

"Under the contract, the American Treasury has apparently got the Federal Reserve Bank of New York to offer to buy out the bonds issued to Mr Riyadi to replace the cash which has been taken from him over the previous 10 years.

"It is giving him $500 million as a cash payment to buy out worthless bonds...

"Mr Riyadi, by passing these bonds over, has also put at the disposal of the US Treasury the entire asset backing which he was alleged to have for the $15 trillion."

Riadi was supposed to have had "750,000 tonnes of gold."

"I have a letter from Mr Riyadi himself, who tells me .... that he has been robbed of all his money...

"Each of the $5 trillion payments that came in has been acknowledged and receipted by senior executives at HSBC and again receipted by senior executives at the Royal Bank of Scotland...

"The money was first said to have come from the Riyadi account to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and from there it was passed to JP Morgan Chase in New York for onward transit to London..."

According to Lord Sassoon, only 1,507 tonnes of gold has been mined in the history of the world, so you cannot have 750,000 tonnes.

"Today, I have this quite frightening piece of paper ... from the general audit office of the Federal Reserve in Washington - the real Federal Reserve-and its audit...

"It has on it some 20 banks listed to which $16.115 trillion is outstanding in loans...

"Barclays Bank has $868 billion of loan, and the Royal Bank of Scotland has $541 billion..."

(This money could earn huge amounts of interest)

"One has to ask a question, because they could have earned back in three weeks their entire indebtedness and could pay off the taxpayers of Britain. Why have they not done so...

"Most extraordinarily, not a penny of interest does the Federal Bank of New York want paid on that vast amount, $16 trillion...

"The compound interest on that sum is huge. If it is genuine, a vast profit is being made on this money somewhere...

"Either we have a huge amount of tax uncollected on profits made or we have a vast amount of money festering away in the European banking system which is not real money, in which case we need to take it back. I ask for an investigation and for noble Lords to support my plea."

The Riady family who control the Lippo Group as well as the Mayapada Group, and have still shares in the Salim Group's Bank Central Asia, have numerous business connections with the Suharto family and the family of one of Suharto's daughter's in-laws, namely the Djojohadikusumo family.[asia-apec 209] Re: Lippo-Clinton connections

According to Wayne Madsen, whose source is said to be in Indian intelligence:

1. "RAW agents apparently staked out the couple's pricey residence in Kochi as late night meetings were conducted with suspect individuals under Indian intelligence surveillance...

"After being presented with evidence of espionage by the intelligence and police services, the Ernakulum District in Kochi decided to order the Israeli couple deported."

2. The Israeli Chabad couple are suspected by RAW of being involved in a covert operation in India linked to the 2008 Mumbai terrorist attack.

3. During the 2008 attack, "six Chabad members were killed in a shootout between Dawood Ibrahim’s Pakistan-based gangsters and the residents of Mumbai’s Chabad House... It was score settling between Ibrahim's drug syndicate and Chabadniks who were seen as moving in on Ibrahim’s control over the Mumbai drug trade."

(Aangirfan believes (1) we cannot be certain what happened at the Mumbai Chabad house (2) Dawood Ibrahim is probably still close friends with the CIA, and hence close friends with Mossad)

4. Chabad and Mossad activities are believed to include the shipment of heroin from Afghanistan to Southeast Asia and the United Arab Emirates.

Mossad and Chabad re-located their operations to Kochi, which has replaced Goa as a major drug trans-shipment point.

5. Before the 2008 Mumbai attacks, David Headley is believed to have maintained contact with the Mossad station in Goa prior and with Ibrahim’s crime syndicate in Pakistan.

6. "When the green light for the Mumbai attacks was given, Ibrahim’s men decided to use the occasion to also attack their drug smuggling competitors at the Mumbai Chabad House."

7. Kochi "also served as a clandestine communications support facility for Israeli Dolphin-class submarines and their contingent of naval divers operating in the Indian Ocean and Arabian Sea. The submarines are believed to be targeting Iran in the event of an outbreak of hostilities between Israel and Iran."

"Indian intelligence also believes the Israelis in Kochi were targeting the classified communications of the Indian naval base in Kochi, the headquarters for the Indian Navy’s Southern Command.

"By targeting the Kochi naval base and the anti-submarine warfare intelligence elements there and at the Indian naval air station on Willingdon Island, the Israelis were capable of providing warning to Israeli forces of Indian, Chinese, American, British, and French warships transiting past the tip of southern India to the Arabian and Red Seas."

On 16 February 2012, "The Delhi Police ... made little headway in the investigations into the bomb attack on the car of an Israeli diplomat in the national Capital's high security zone even as the National Security Guard (NSG) claimed that its elite bomb unit was not allowed to look at the bombed vehicle. "As the Delhi policemen continued to grope in the dark, nine Israeli officials visited the Special Cell office and examined the damaged Innova car. They also visited the crime scene...

"As questions were being raised on the slow pace of investigations, NSG director general R.K. Medhekar said an NSG team was denied access to the crime scene, citing 'diplomatic reasons'."

"Mullah Iran has a track record of boasting about alleged technological achievements that don't exist going back to the 1980's

"There are various domestic psychological reasons for this.

"The Mullahs came to power in 1979, as latter day Luddites(people opposed to modern machinery) at the behest of the USA/UK

"The mullahs shut down the ... Shah's ambitious nuclear program of $90 billion ...which would be $360 billion at today's prices (2012).

"Though the mullahs have restarted the civilian nuclear program begun by the Shah, and attempted to complete nuclear power stations begun in the 1970's by the Shah, there is no way the mullahs are going to invest the huge amounts of capital investment that the Shah promised.

"Maybe only 10% of what the Shah would have spent, in the next 10-20 years.

"Why?

(i) "The Mullahs are Luddites who aren't into technical modernization of the Iranian economy, which might produce a very large prosperous middle class.

"Instead the mullahs have been busy encouraging the technical class/middle class leave Iran - up to 5,000,000 of them.

"The mullahs see the middle class as threats to their power, and have thus allied themselves with the villagers and urban working class, at least through sloganism.

(ii) "The fear that Iran might run out of oil ... has passed. Hence the urgency to build alternative power no longer exists."

According to Harrison, the biggest threat to the ruling ayatollahs and generals in Iran comes from the separatist groups in Kurdish, Baluch, Azeri and Arab ethnic minority regions that make up some 44 percent of Iran's population.

During the Bush administration, the plan was "limited covert action carried out by proxy, in the case of the Baluch, through Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence Directorate or, I.S.I., and in the case of the Kurds by the C.I.A. in cooperation with Israel’s Mossad."

The C.I.A. provided weapons aid and training to the main Kurdish rebel group in Iran, according to U.S. journalists, Jon Lee Anderson and Seymour Hersh of the New Yorker and Borzou Daragahi of the Los Angeles Times.

The Arab separatists live in a province which produces 80 percent of Iran's crude oil revenue.
